(submitted by Amanda in Providence, Rhode Island)

Ingredients:

• 4 1/3-pound Steak-umm Burgers
• 1/4 cup of hot sauce
• 8 slices of torn-apart raw bacon
• 8 slices of torn-apart prosciutto
• 4 slices of pineapple
• 4 sweet Portuguese buns
• 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella
• 1/2 cup of cut-up yellow onion
• 8 slices of jarred sliced hot peppers
• 4 slices of romaine lettuce
• 4 tsp of ranch dressing

Instructions:

1. Brush each burger with hot sauce on each side and cook to desired doneness.

2. In a sprayed skillet, grill pineapple slices until they start to have light grill marks, and set aside.

3. In the same skillet where the pineapples were, add bacon, onions, prosciutto and fry together until they are cooked thoroughly.

4. Butter each side of the Portuguese buns and toast them until golden.

5. Now it's time to assemble. First put the bottom bun down and put the burger on it, then add a slice of pineapple and some of the bacon, prosciutto and onion mixture. Put 2 slices of hot peppers on top, add mozzarella on top of the hot peppers, add a slice of romaine lettuce, then spread a tsp of ranch dressing on the top bun and put the bun on. Serves 4 people.
